Charles 'proud' of King's Trust as it marks milestone

Founded by Charles in 1976 as The Prince’s Trust, the organisation was conceived to empower young individuals facing challenging circumstances, guiding them towards employment opportunities or supporting their entrepreneurial ventures.

Now recognised as one of the nation's foremost youth charities, it has positively impacted the lives of more than 1.3 million young people.

Its work is championed by high-profile figures such as former England football manager Sir Gareth Southgate and television presenters Ant and Dec. British actor Idris Elba has previously credited the trust with providing a life-altering opportunity.
